To Avoid Takji,e Cold.

DR.. Brown-Seqnard, in commune
cation made to the Seciete de Biologie,
points out method by which that
common but uncomfortable experience
known as catching a cold' may be
avoided He remarks that the parts
of the human skin which are most
sensitive to the action of cold are at
the neck and at the feet, and these
should he hardened and accustomed
to withstand rapid changes of temper

to attain this end consists in blowing
upon the neck daily stream of cold
air from an elastic bag, and placing
the feet in water the temperature of

A farmer named August Pirch, who
lives near Garvanzo, is the happy pos
SCISSOR of Il dozen fine, healthy chill
dren. These youngsters grow fat, eat
three or four hearty meals a day, and
the way they wear out clothes is
enough to make Il WOODEN factory
think cyclone had struck it. Mr..
!Pirch has been in hot water with his
little fishes for years, and was about
to give up in despair, when bright
idea struck him. He had tract of
land that could not be used for the
want of water. But how to irrigate
the land without spending large sum
of money was n mystery. A ditch
would cost thousands of dollars, but
corner lots have not been so plentiful
in the Pirch family as the happy father
could have wished, and his bank book
simply showed balance of few
hundreds instead cf thousands. He
figured on the cost of a well and found
that he could stand a sixty-foot well, a
cheap pump and onc@f those great big
family swings which are noticed at
pleasure-gardens and German picnic
grounds The well was bored, the
pump was set up, and the swing was
put in working order.
Here, you little cascals," said the
elder Pirch to his little fishes, ''come
out here and got in this swing. I'm
going to give y"a something to play
with" In five ninutes the children
were flying back and forth through the
air. The pump worked up and down,
making u merry tune, and a fourteen
inch stream of water flowed from the
well. The, children don't know that
they are working, as the swing is some
distance from the well, and is con.
nected by an iron rod which works the
pump, as the swing yibrates back and
forth. Mr.. Pirch is positive that the
youngsters will pump enough water
during the day to irrigate q large tract

For over twenty years Rogers has
lived in this State, and no one to look
upon his benign face would imagine
him the character his many criminal
acts prove him TO have been. j saw
him few years ago at his country
seat in Sonoma county, surrounded by
his family, consisting of a wife and
eight children, two of the latter being
a step-daughter and son. The young
lady is very pretty, and q great IA
vorite in society, and the step-son is
a model of propriety and well liked by
both business and social associates.
His wife is a charming woman, APP
preaching the meridian of life. Time
has used her kindly, much, more so
than it has the Colonel, who bears the
trace of trouble deeply craven in his
parchment-like face, and indicated by
numerous deep burrows which the
sixty odd years of time have not UNI
aided caused. He stands about six
feet in height, is erect, and has a
soldierly bearing. His hair, or what
there is left of it, is snow-white, and a
silky mustache of the same color
adorns his lip. His eyebrows are
bushy, and from beneath them peer a
pair of very restless steel-gray eyes.
He has high cheek. bones and a reced-
ing forehead.
The Colonel has surrounded himself
with all the luxuries that money can
procure, and is very proud Of the ele-
gance of his country-seat. 1t is loca-
ted in the most charming part of the
county, about six miles from the little
town of Petaluma. The house, which
may more fittingly be termed a pal
ace, is built of the finest of finished
stone and stands in the midst of large
grounds, surrounded on all sides by
grassy lawns, gravelcd walks and rare
exotics. Back of the homestead
stretches acres upon acres of the
Coloners possessions, most of which is
in vineyard, producing thousands OF
gallons of wine each year.
1t is through his wife that Rogers is
connected with j. b. Haggin's family,
with the family of Lloyd Tevis, and
through these families with the Shar.
ons and Lord Hesketh, of England,
who a few years ago married Flora
the. youngest daughter of the late
Senator Sharon.-From a San Fran
CISCO Letter. , -.

DR.. Holmes says that when he was
in England he insisted upon measur-
ing some large clms to compare them
with Boston elms. About sixteen feet
around the trunk is the measurement
of the Boston Common elm, and from
twenty to twenty-threc is the ordinary
maximum of the largest trees. He
found an elm i'm the grounds of Mag
dalen college which measured twenty
five feet and six inches.
A writer on the subject of physical
training for girls, in the British Medical
Journal, says that for schoolgirls he
would have at least two half-holidays a
week devoted to games played in a
large space in the open air. Among
the exercises he would practice are
swimming, fencing, cricket, football,
fiyes and tennis, aud such games of
speed and endurance as prisoners base,
cross-touch, etc.
